This commit does a couple of things:
- move whereToOpenLink and getRootEvent implementations into BrowserUtils,
so they can be used from the child process.
- forward callers in utilityOverlay.js to the BrowserUtils ones
(bug 1742889 will get rid of the forwarding and update all the callers;
we might be able to get this and bug 1739929 into beta if risk is low
enough, and touching a bunch of extra files really doesn't help with
that)
- move the lazy-load of BrowserUtils from browser.js to utilityOverlay.js
This is safe because everywhere that loads browser.js also loads
utilityOverlay.js. It's needed because there are some places that use
utilityOverlay.js but not browser.js, and so now they need access to
BrowserUtils.jsm.
- use whereToOpenLink to determine if we should avoid consuming the transient
user gesture activation in the child click handling code.
- add an automated test based on the testcase in the bug.
When working on this, I initially put the check using whereToOpenLink in
the toplevel of the function, and then when I ran places test to check that
I hadn't broken any places consumers of whereToOpenLink or getRootEvent,
realized that I had broken `browser_markPageAsFollowedLink.js`, because it
relies on "normal" (ie no modifier key, left button) link clicks making it
to ClickHandlerParent.jsm . I filed bug 1742894 about this. I've not tried
to fix that here, instead I've tried to ensure that paths through this
function are as untouched as possible while still fixing bug 1739929 and
bug 1742801.

When switching to an already open but lazy/unloaded about:preferences tab and
highlighting a section in it, wait for it to load first.

We're not 100% certain if Help is the right spot for this, but we're going
to give it a shot and see. If it turns out it _is_ the right spot, we'll
probably do something a little more self-contained, and less hacky.
I'm leaving the old .properties file just in case we change our mind here.
Yes, we'll want to port to Fluent anyways, but our ultimate choice of where
we put this thing is probably going to dictate where the string lives.

This patch makes the contentAreaUtils.saveURL to be aware of the
cookieJarSettings, and updates all callers.
This also updates the documentation of the persistArgs
'cookieJarSettings' for internalPersist().

This patch does the following:
* Moves most logic for initiating about:home / about:newtab into AboutNewTab.jsm
* Makes AboutNewTab the API surface for overriding the default about:newtab URLs.
* Reduces the surface of nsIAboutNewTabService, and makes the properties read-only
* Splits the remaining code in the nsIAboutNewTabService into an implementation for
the parent process, and one for content processes.
This split will hopefully help reduce confusion about which code in
AboutNewTabService is running in which process.
